These are the ones I believe you're looking for, just make sure you get M6 tnuts for them

I do have plans to expand to the access cab at some point, currently focusing on the non-drill applications though.

 

Sounds good

 

Thanks! I'm looking forward to installing your rack and putting it to good use. I ordered mine the other day.

 

Mine is fine--- I have same almost same exact ; i drive a 2020 TRD OR Double Cab 6spd MT

I'll try to remember to take a pic of how i mounted it and the fin from my XM

 

how much silicone have you guys used to install your rack? just installed mine and only used 1/2 a small tube...

 

Looks like this is next on my list

Just ordered one a few days ago after seeing one in person in Colorado over the weekend. You won't be disappointed.

 

hey man, how did you get your bunched up drip molding above the drivers door to set down in position?

 

that rtt hoist A++++

 

I use a threaded bolt and nut. No rings.

 

Can anyone suggest best J rack/s to transport Kayak using this rack?

 

I have not got there yet on mine. Since I typically only transport a single large SOT or a canoe I just strap it to the racks. hopefully someone will chime in, but the tracks are incredibly versatile using drop-in or slid-in threaded inserts J racks could be bolted to the cross bars or possibly clamped onto the bars, but the bars are slightly wider than typical crossbars, so direct mounting might be your best bet.

 

I transported a Hobbie fishing kayak before. Nothing special, just tied it to the rails and straps on either end.

 

I'll get you some pictures of what I use on my truck, I made some simple adapter plates so I can easily add and remove the j-hooks during the summer months. You may be able to clamp them to the bar also, depending on the design of the bottom bracket of the j-hooks.

 

I was thinking of ways that would be cheap and easy to make mounting plates that could be used for whatever I wanted up there that wouldn’t line up with the t-slots. I think I’m going to buy a couple black cutting boards to try to see what they look like. There’s a variety of sizes for anything that you wanted to bolt something to, then attach the cutting board to the rails with the inserts and bolts.

Thanks, it’s an ATV winch on a block and tackle. I use a battery pack to power it for now.

 

Mounted up a Plano case on my Martin Foundation Rack — for recovery gear and camping stuff. I’ll mount the other one in the morning. Camping next week.
